The temperature in Los Angeles is very similar to that in Beijing, of course, there is a little more gloom and coolness than in Beijing.

Especially in the suburbs.

On the second day after coming to North America, Shen Lin changed into a coat.

"I'll contact Bill later to ask about the next trip, if it's not very busy or don't particularly need to attend the awards ceremony, we won't go, we haven't traveled together for a long time, I'll take you to Alaska for a sleigh ride!"

Shen Lin looked at Zhao Liying, who was obviously depressed, and made a suggestion.

"No, I want to show up more, I finally came to North America, of course I have to walk the red carpet more. ”

Zhao Liying sat cross-legged by the fireplace, looking at the roaring stove and replied.

"What's the meaning of the red carpet? Do you want to be called a blanket star like Fan Bingbing?"

"I'm different from her, I have works!"

Zhao Liying raised her head and looked at Shen Lin, and explained seriously.

"Okay, but you obviously haven't reversed the jet lag, you change your clothes, I'll take you to eat, right?"

Woman, you always have your own point!

"I don't want to move, it's so uncomfortable..."

Zhao Liying sighed a little bitterly.

Nonsense, all night last night, the young lady didn't feel sleepy until it was almost dawn.

Then he was woken up by the sound of Shen Lin making breakfast, scolded him a few times, and then couldn't sleep anymore.

couldn't eat the food, so she finally poured in half a glass of milk under Shen Lin's compulsion, and made her vomit it.

The mental state is extremely poor.

“… I'll go shopping with you, Vanessa Jewelry has recently released a new product, right in Central City, Los Angeles. ”

There was really no way, Shen Lin made a big move.

"Really, wait for me, I'll go change my clothes..."

So jewelry is a good medicine for women!

……

Disney has always been a good partner of Shen Lin in North America.

From "Interstellar" to "Dallas Buyers Club", including "Carol" this time, Disney is responsible for the North American distribution - Touchstone Pictures is owned by Disney.

On the third day of arriving in North America, Shen Lin came to Disney headquarters.

The person in charge of receiving him was still Cookdik, who had worked with him before.

"This is a script I wrote, you can take a look. ”

Shen Lin's purpose in coming to Disney was not only to investigate the preparation of the special effects of "Tomb Robbery Notes", but more importantly, to submit the script of "Star Wars" to Cook Dick.

“… The production cost is only 80 million, isn't it a little less?"

Cook flipped through the synopsis, then flipped to the project proposal, and frowned slightly when he saw that the cost was estimated to be $80 million.

"80 million dollars is enough, unless you find a director who is too big-handed!"

Shen Lin rolled his eyes.

In particular, Disney is getting more and more arrogant now.

The average studio thinks about reducing costs, and it's good that you don't think the investment is too small.

“… Shen Lin, don't you have the idea of being the director of "Star Wars"?"

"I'd love to do it, but unfortunately, in the last three years, my time has been filled..."

Shen Lin shrugged his shoulders and made an apologetic expression at Cook.

"We're going to add two Chinese actors to the movie, what do you have to recommend?"

"Jiang Wen and Hu Ge, these two are the most representative figures among Chinese actors!"

Shen Lin didn't think about it, and directly said the two actors he envisioned.

"Jiang Wen, I know, I've also watched "Red Sorghum", who is Hu Ge?"

As a high-level Disney executive, Cook Dick has paid more and more attention to the Chinese market in recent years, and Jiang Wen, as a representative of the Chinese screen men's gang, knows him very well.

"Hu Ge should be the most appealing idol-level actor in Chinese mainland in the past ten years, and his popularity is very high!"

Shen Lin thought about it for a while and replied.

"Is it as good as Kris?"

"In China, while there are a lot of people who like Kris, there are many more who hate him, and Star Wars is better off not having anything to do with him. ”

Kris, also known as Wu Yifan, is a typical representative of everyone else.

I think that when he first returned from EXO, that person's popularity soared, and with the blessing of "Lao Paoer", more people liked him.

Wu Yifan at that time was definitely the most popular idol, there was no one!

Then, the fans still don't admit it, which is very contemptible.

You're so handsome, what's wrong with a fan?

It's a bit too much not to admit it!

The most important thing is that he claims to be a professional actor, and he has released three movies in a year, "Xia Youqiao Mu Yawang Heaven", "To Youth, So You Are Still Here", "Jue Ji", including the 17-year Spring Festival file "Journey to the West", showing the audience what ZZ acting skills are!

It's even better than Huang Xiaoming Xie Tingfeng!

"Hugo, I'll keep an eye on this man... Actually, we want to find Zhen Bullet or Daniel Wu. ”

"Forget it, Zhen Dan's reputation in the mainland is not very good, as for Daniel, he seems to have taken over "Warcraft", and it is estimated that there is no schedule. ”

After chatting about "Star Wars: A Rogue Story", the communication between the two was changed to "Tomb Robbery Notes"

"Shen, you want us to do it, we've done it, when will you start shooting?"

Around the end of 2013, Shen Lin took out the project plan of "Tomb Robbery Notes", Disney attached great importance to it, and after more than a year of research, they were sure that this kind of "treasure hunting" type of movie had a broad market in the world, so they readily agreed.

However, Shen Lin showed no signs of starting, which made Disney a little annoyed.

Especially the person in charge of this work, Kukdik.

"I will start filming a prequel around March next year to test the market, and if the response is good, we will shoot three films in a row!"

Shen Lin roughly said his plan: "In the North American market, I need Disney's cooperation in publicity!"

The English version of "Tomb Robbery Notes" has long been released in the northern region, but the sales are tepid and the influence is a bit low.

After all, where do foreigners know feng shui.

They don't even understand why the black donkey's hooves can restrain the zongzi!

Therefore, Disney needs to strengthen publicity.

"Of course, we don't want our investment to go down the drain!"

Cook Dick nodded.

The entire "Tomb Robbery Notes" project was co-produced by Zhao Liying's studio, Alibaba Pictures, Wanda Pictures, Light Media and Disney in the early stage.

Disney invested $10 million to win the North American distribution of "Tomb Raiders".

"Well, we're happy to work together!"

"Happy working together!"

……

Coming back from the Disney Company.

Shen Lin's car was still sitting in Bill Dorothy.

"This year's awards season is incomprehensible. ”

Bill Dorothy sat on the couch, shook his head, and continued: "Best Picture and Best Director are different in every place where critics give different choices, and it hasn't been like that for many years!"

"But at least the actor must be in Xiao Lizi's bag. ”

Shen Lin smiled, then looked at Zhao Liying, "If "Carol" wants to win the Oscar, the biggest possibility is your Best Supporting Actress. ”

"That's right, Zhao's performance in "Carol" is very good, and we are competing for the supporting actress with the weight of the heroine, and there is a great possibility of winning the award!"

Bill Dorothy nodded in agreement.

"What about Mr. Gong Li? There is no chance for the Oscars, is there a chance for the Golden Globes?"

Shen Lin always felt a little debted to Gong Li.

The heroine who was said to be good!
